COSMOSfloworks always crashes when doing a study

COSMOSfloworks always crashes when doing a study

(OP)
Hello all,

Hope all is great.

I am teaching an FEA course at a local college and noticed that all the student machines have this problem.

1) Open a part or assembly in SolidWorks
2) Run the Floworks study wizard
3) Name the study and select next
4) The window where one selects the type of study freezes
5) SolidWorks crashes

Has anyone run into this problem before? I reported this to the IT group and they will most likely contact the reseller, but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

cheers,

Joseph

RE: COSMOSfloworks always crashes when doing a study

OK, the IT group contacted SolidWorks and they said that there is a conflict with FloWorks 2008 and AutoCAD Mechanical (i.e. it only occurs in machines that have both of these installed). This problem is fixed in FloWorks 2009 (i.e. it will work in all machines).
